Tunga Bar
Honorary Mention

Tunga Bar is a small funky lounge on the ground level of Tungara Hostel in Bocas Town. This colorful spot is located right in the middle of everything, across from the park, exactly where Bocas' night comes to life every single evening.
You can just pass by even if you're not staying at the hostel to get to know some really nice people or have an ice cold beer right after checking in, while you get your bearings upon arriving to the island. Enjoy one of Bocas greatest selections of imported beers in addition to local brews and a full array of fancy cocktails.
Tunga Bar mostly plays fresh dance/electronic music with a chilled beat and on the TV you'll usually find surf, music festivals or adventure videos (muted). And sometimes – but not everyday! – they'll get some fans together and stream live sporting events – surf contests, a soccer match from the World Cup or the Champions League, or important playoffs from the wide world of international sports. And let's not forget the local favorite, UFC night!
Mostly though Tunga Bar is where good friends meet and hang out. They have free WiFi that makes finding your friends after a day of activities easier, too. Tunga Bar faces the street and is a great spot for people watching, meeting up with friends after a boat tour, or enjoying a good drink before heading off to dinner or a bigger party at one of Bocas nightlife hot spots. When the clock hits midnight, they usually call it a night to allow you to join a Bocas party elsewhere and in that way the hostel's guests who wish to will be able to get a good night's sleep.
